The notation just means
(f/g)(-4) = f(-4) / g(-4)
If f(x) = x² + 2 and g(x) = 1 - 3x, then
f(-4) = (-4)² + 2 = 16 + 2 = 18
g(-4) = 1 - 3 (-4) = 1 + 12 = 13
and so
(f/g)(-4) = 18/13
Answer: 40 students.
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this problem you mmust apply the steps shown below:
1. You know that there is a total of 100 students, then you can say that the 100% is 100 students.
2. Then, to calculate how much would 40% be, you must multiply 100 students by 40% which you rewrite as a decimal by dividing it by 100, as following:
40%/100=0.4
Then 40% of the students would be
100 studens*0.4=40 students
SA=2H(L+W)+LW for open box
20=2H(4+W)+4(W)
distribute
20=8H+2WH+4W
divide both sides by 2
10=4H+WH+2W
solve for 1 variable, pick W
10-4H=WH+2W
10-4H=W(H+2)
(10-4H)/(H+2)=W
V=LWH
subsitute 4 for V, subsitute H for H and (10-4H)/(H+2) for W
V=(4)(H)(10-4H)/(H+2)
V=(40H-16H²)/(H+2)
find max value
take deritivitive of this thing
V'=-16(H²+4H-5)/((H+2)²)
using sign chart
sign changes from positive to negative at H=1
so at H=1
find W
W=(10-4H)/(H+2)
W=2
the dimeionts are
length=4ft
width=2ft
height=1ft
(the volume is 8 cubic feet)
